Mark Teixeira drove in the Yankees’ lone run of the game with a sacrifice fly Friday against the Orioles.

Teixeira brought the Yankees within one run in the fourth inning before being replaced by Tyler Austin at first base to begin the fifth inning. It was a bit odd considering he’s going into the final weekend of his career. According to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com, Teixera packed up his stuff and went to the clubhouse after he was pulled from the game. Sep 30 - 10:46 PM

It didn't stop the Red Sox from clinching the AL East, but it surely felt good for Teixeira, who will wrap up his career in four days unless the Yankees pull off a miracle and advance. With homers in consecutive games, Teixeira has upped his OPS to .660, his highest mark since early May. Sep 29 - 1:37 AM

Mark Teixeira smacked a game-tying solo home run in Monday's comeback win over the Blue Jays.

The Jays called upon Jason Grilli to close it out with Roberto Usuna unavailable, and Teixeira drilled one over the right-field wall with one out to knot things up. After a Didi Gregorius single, Aaron Hicks then delivered a go-ahead blast. Teixeira now has 14 homers over 378 at-bats in his farewell season. Sep 26 - 10:38 PM

Mark Teixeira is not in the Yankees starting lineup for Saturday's showdown against the Blue Jays.

Yankees skipper Joe Girardi continues to mix and match as the Bombers fight for a wild card berth. Tyler Austin is making a rare start in his place and will bat eighth against Marcus Stroman and the Blue Jays. Sep 24 - 1:18 PM

Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said Wednesday that Aaron Judge, Aaron Hicks, and Rob Refsnyder are currently the options to get at-bats in right field next season.

Obviously the Yankees would love for Judge to run away with the opportunity, but the 24-year-old batted just .179 with 42 strikeouts in 95 plate appearances during his first stint in the majors before being shut down with a right oblique strain in mid-September. This situation is subject to change, as there's a chance Brett Gardner could be a trade chip over the winter. The Yankees would surely love to deal Jacoby Ellsbury, but finding a taker (even if they cover a lot of the money involved) will be a big challenge.
